Director Graves buys 220 UMBF shares at $127.84; modest $28.1K addition to 39.5K holdings (+0.6%)

Director Greg M Graves purchased 220 shares of UMB Financial at $127.84 on 2026-02-02, bringing his total holdings to 39,540 shares—a 0.6% increase from his prior position of 39,320 shares. The purchase value was $28,125.00 ($28.1K), representing a small absolute addition. At Graves' same ticker (UMBF), prior trade outcomes have been mixed: 2 of 5 prior buys were well-timed at the 90-day mark, while the other 3 did not achieve positive 90-day returns, with returns ranging from -7.4% to +14.8% over 90 days. The stock is currently priced at $127.96, near its 52-week high of $128.05, and has appreciated 9.9% over 30 days and 19.4% over 90 days. No extraordinary pattern emerges from this single transaction relative to the modest purchase size and mixed timing history at this ticker.

Significance 4/10

Director Graves buys 264 UMBF shares at $106.41; stock -10.7% in 30 days, -1.3% in 90 days.

Director Greg M Graves purchased 264 shares of UMB Financial at $106.41, adding 0.7% to his existing 38.1K share position. The purchase occurs as UMBF has declined 10.7% over the past month and trades 16.0% below its 52-week high of $127.60. Examining Graves's prior transaction history at UMBF reveals mixed timing outcomes: of his four measurable prior purchases at this ticker, two subsequently showed positive 90-day returns (+14.8%, +11.6%) while two showed negative returns (-7.4%, -6.4%), suggesting no clear pattern of prescient entry timing. The current trade appears relatively modest in size and follows a period of price weakness, but without additional context on Graves's overall portfolio activity or personal circumstances, the purchase represents a routine accumulation by a director rather than a distinct signal about the company's prospects.

Significance 4/10

Director Graves purchases 233 UMBF shares at $120.44; sixth consecutive buy in past 14 months, continuing pattern of steady accumulation.

Director Greg M. Graves executed a $28,125.00 purchase of 233 shares at $120.44, bringing his holdings to 38,033 shares. This purchase represents his sixth open-market buy at UMB Financial in 14 months (since February 2024), each time at discrete intervals rather than a single concentrated addition. Notably, of his prior five trades at this ticker, two of four measurable 90-day outcomes showed positive returns, indicating mixed timing success on this specific holding. The current stock price of $123.63 sits -3.1% from the 52-week high, and has risen 18.0% over the past 90 days, providing some near-term upside context to the transaction. The company carries a P/E of 17.76 and net income of $217,394,000.00, placing it within mid-cap financial sector ranges. While the continued accumulation pattern is consistent with his prior behavior, the modest size (+0.6% to holdings) and mixed historical returns on this ticker suggest observation rather than elevated signal strength.

Significance 5/10

Director Graves bought 261 UMBF shares at $107.58; 3 of 5 prior buys well-timed at 90-day mark.

Greg M Graves, a director of UMB Financial Corp, purchased 261 shares at $107.58 on 2025-08-01, increasing his holdings to 37,800 shares. The current price of $111.26 is 12.8% below the 52-week high of $127.60, and the stock has gained 9.8% over the past 90 days. His prior transaction history at UMBF shows a mixed pattern: of his 5 prior trades at this ticker, 3 achieved positive 90-day returns (well-timed buys), while 2 experienced declines. His cross-ticker track record across 6 prior buys averaged +3.3% over 30 days and +6.0% over 90 days with a 50% win rate. The transaction itself is modest relative to his existing position (+0.7%) and his company's financial strength (P/E 15.99, $217.4M net income). This activity represents a continuation of periodic accumulation at UMBF with no clear structural shift in conviction, though the timing relative to the stock's recent 9.8% rally warrants observation of whether the pattern of intermittent buying persists.

Significance 4/10

Director Graves buys 255 UMBF shares at $110.19; stock down 18.1% from 52-week high, prior buys showed 60% win rate at 90 days.

Director Greg M Graves purchased 255 shares of UMB Financial at $110.19 on 2025-03-03, increasing his holdings to 37,288 shares (+0.7%). The purchase occurs when UMBF is trading 18.1% below its 52-week high and down 7.7% over the prior 30 days. Examining Graves' same-ticker history at UMBF across 5 prior purchases shows a 60% win rate at the 90-day mark, with mixed absolute returns ranging from -9.9% to +33.0%. His cross-ticker track record averaged +8.5% at 90 days across all open-market buys, though his prior UMBF trades show more volatility than his broader portfolio activity. The current purchase is modest in size relative to his existing position, and the stock has already declined 7.7% post-transaction, moving in the opposite direction of his typical favorable 90-day window.

Significance 5/10

Director Graves buys 257 UMBF shares at $109.29; stock near 52-week high at $111.04.

Director Greg M Graves purchased 257 shares of UMB Financial Corp at $109.29 on 2024-11-01, bringing his holdings to 36.2K shares. The purchase occurs with the stock at $111.04, just -0.6% from its 52-week high of $111.67 and up 21.1% over 90 days. Graves' prior four buys at UMBF show mixed timing outcomes: two generated strong 90-day returns (30d +4.1%, 90d +11.6% in August 2024; 30d +18.9%, 90d +33.0% in November 2023), while two incurred losses (90d -2.4% in February 2024; 90d -9.9% in August 2023). The stock's current proximity to its 52-week high and recent strong momentum create a context where the purchase price represents elevated valuation relative to the company's P/E of 13.81. Investors should monitor whether this accumulation at a near-high price point reflects conviction in further upside or coincides with a consolidation phase.

Significance 4/10

Director Greg M Graves bought 565 UMBF shares at $99.55 on 2024-08-01; stock now $90.56, -11.2% from 52-week high.

Director Greg M Graves purchased 565 shares of UMB Financial Corp at $99.55 on 2024-08-01, increasing his holdings from 35,304 to 35,869 shares. The purchase price was near the 52-week high range ($58.65–$102.02), but the stock has since declined to $90.56, leaving this transaction underwater by approximately 9%. Examining his prior trades at UMBF, Graves has shown mixed timing: his November 2023 buy delivered a 90-day return of +33.0%, but his February 2024 buy fell -2.4% over 90 days, and his August 2023 buy fell -9.9% over 90 days, yielding a 33.33% win rate on same-ticker buys. The current purchase near a 52-week peak, combined with his inconsistent track record of picking entry points at this ticker and the stock's subsequent 11% decline from transaction date, suggests neither strong conviction timing nor a clear pattern of successful accumulation at UMBF.
